π Hyderabad | 2β5 years experience
Earthful is a plant-based nutrition brand for women's health β backed by Fireside Ventures, V3 Ventures, and Ritesh Agarwal (Shark Tank India). As we scale, we need someone who's already sourced and managed raw materials and packaging for a D2C or FMCG brand β not someone learning this on the job.
β Source, negotiate, and manage vendors for raw materials (actives, excipients, ingredients) and packaging materials
β Verify every incoming batch against its COA (Certificate of Analysis) before it's accepted β no exceptions
β Own primary, secondary, and tertiary packaging specs β from bottles and blister packs to shipping cartons
β Track lead times, manage POs, and keep production from ever waiting on materials
β Drive cost optimization on RM/PM without compromising quality or compliance
β Onboard and audit new vendors as we scale
